Description

1. TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] Local Storage, Personal Digital Recorders (PDR), Home Servers, Handheld Communication Devices etc. 2. TECHNICAL BACKGROUND [0002] 2.1. The Problem Area [0003] The massive growth in the market for local storage devices like Personal Digital Recorders (set-top-boxes equipped with hard disc drives), DVD recorders, Mobile Terminals with storage capability and other personal media devices during the last six months enables a number of new features for individual media consumption. It is expected that the PDR will become a mainstream consumer device with a penetration of more than 10% of the households in the US in 2005 and in Europe the following year. It is expected that most consumer media devices of the future will feature local storage. Some forecasts point out that as much as 70% of all TV consumption will be in some kind of time-shifted mode. TV-Anytime predicted in 2000 that the storage capacity would reach 16.000 hours of video per $100 of storage medium...
